speculating on a speculation thread makes you a creep? pack it up everyone this thread is over

just as an fyi, what *would* convince you that they’re dating? y’all are reaching with the photoshop claims…

animal crossing... is kinda fun but i keep on drawing designs instead of progressing the game rip </3333

ohhhhh yeah baby this is the one!! i think it's interesting how jayhoon is pretty unpopular in the intl fandom but it's one of the most popular ships in the domestic fandom, their dynamic is almost straight out of tv tropes LMAO EDIT: wrt figure skating being considered gay, i tend to agree with @Chika Chika. no matter how popular it may be, i feel like there is always a sort of stigma around the young guys. it's a bit of an indirect comparison but i used to do ballet for a long time as a child and there were usually only one or two guys performing at the year-end show. i was too young personally to consider anything like sexuality, but rumours were always circulating with the older girls about the guys' heterosexuality. in sunghoon's case, he Was the one guy in a sea of girls. the nature of the sport is such that it does bring unwanted attention on the boys, so i find it likely the poor guy had to deal with rumours during his figure-skating career about something so personal, either in front of him or behind his back. it sucks a lot sigh

it's funny that you mention jake because i've always thought sunghoon's sussiest side comes out when he's interacting with jay. i feel like after the whole sunoo issue we've forgotten that jay is also teased all the time. the jjongsaeng thing is an overkill but sunghoon more than anyone else just won't. stop. saying it. and he also delivers some pretty interesting reactions when jay claps back. there's this particular moment from a vlive (apologies for no source) where jay is staring sunghoon down and sunghoon refuses to make eye contact but he's got an awkward smile on his face. this guy just keeps ratting on himself and i can't even clown him, it's honestly kinda cute lol. another curious sunghoon moment for me is this one. i love how at the end he says that it's a hobby of his, but i'm not sure whether he means teasing sunoo or watching his aegyo compilations. either of the two choices are gay as hell doe

oh yes we are, we gotta resurrect the enhypen discussion in here

oh noooo… yeonjun fron lidl… a valuable asset was lost today

lemme also put the tinfoil hat on cuz why not yk what's funny is that in my first week of consuming enhypen content i saw sunghoon and thought 'this guy's got a lot of issues with himself doesn't he'. i just feel like he restricts himself from doing what he really wants, as if he's holding himself to some sort of standard. maybe that has to do with his background as a stage child? i won't pretend like i know the guy irl because i clearly don't but i feel like he exaggerates his masculinity in order to ham up something that isn't there in the first place. sunghoon is crap at acting so if you spend like thirty mins max watching his content you can tell that the image he's pushing of himself is totally different to who he actually is. the members themselves said he is really private off-cam so i dunno if he's ever gonna open up to like. anyone about his concerns or if he's gonna be true to himself. fwiw, he reminds me of a very particular type of gay guy in my home country – most of the guys that my gay friends dated in high school fit in this trope lol. a boyish guy in his late teens/early 20s who wants to repress his gay thoughts and might even be openly homophobic/femmephobic (!!) but lurks on grindr and texts every other twink. ik it's a very specific image but whenever sunghoon does his roundabout gay shit it gives me so much deja-vu to those dating app types. it's to the point where if he ever says anything homophobic i won't even be mad, i'll just be like "okay buddy. whatever you say." maybe my impression of sunghoon is totally wrong and he's really just a hetero guy but??? i don't really see it, especially cuz i've seen loads of queer guys similar to him

the past week i decided to diversify and listened to a lot of 4th gen boy group music... like forty groups... never doing that again anyway dropping some recs here ateez - horizon + cyberpunk enhypen - attention please txt - fairy of shampoo cravity - ooh ahh + cloud 9 (hmu when they return to this type of songs) yoojung (ooo) - begin verivery - o bdc - moonlight (STREAM THEIR SONGS PLS) to1 - don't fear now also i gotta comment that i love ghost9's shtick. they act all tough and shit but they're so camp and i love it, i'm not sure if they're 100% aware of it, but if they aren't it makes things so much better. still miss teen teen though

in any case, i am in the pleasant position to announce to my fellow 3 engenes here that i am now firmly in the sunghoon closeted bi camp. no explanations, no arguments, just pure vibes

well then i’ll be waiting on your snarky replies to get a laugh out of the debate brother ;))

the taehyung/jennie photo debate was exhausted two months ago, if you care about the photo’s validity so much make a separate thread about it unrelated jake talk under the spoiler

yoooo that sounds sick!!! for some reason i didn’t expect that from you you come across as an economics person fjdjdjdn i hope your postgrad goes great

the korean industry has gotta be the only one where some guy smoking and flirting with chicks is an issue… this whole thing is ridiculous i would imagine he’d have the decency to not go out in itaewon in fuckin sweatpants though EDIT: if that ‘manager’ guy is wearing enhypen slippers i gotta get some for myself i didn’t realise they actually sold them as merch LMAO

whewww thankfully student services replied quickly so my visa is back to being processed! this shit is so stressful i swear, i am only praying the visa is out by the end of august cuz i gotta fly by mid-september in britain's case, universities are desperate for money cuz brexit lost the uk loads of eu student money. from my country in particular, the number of students studying in the uk went down by 85% !!! which is so fuckin crazy but also deserved. soooo it's in their best interests to help eu/intl students quickly LMAO out of curiosity, what did you study/are going to study?

urgh i’m having visa problems… worst experience of my goddamn life. watch me mail my uni with baby jungwon as my pfp

so kind of them to feature kermit sunbaenim in that chorus

this is so sad can we get a like i’m here to listen to the tea even if i take psychic damage tho LMAO

you can’t just say that and walk away… you gotta spill them names

1 million wons… yummy also i was backreading and i realised i never answered your query @nana_moonre: dongpyo, so!! i just find him really fucking annoying lol. while watching pdx he made it way too clear that he latched onto seungwoo simply for the popularity points, and it wasn’t a look i was a fan of. i did try watching some of his clips later on to try to warm up to him, but he comes off as super fake – and i mean all idols fake their personalities to some extent but i don’t vibe at all with the one he’s chosen. also idgaf ab his performance and i don’t like mirae’s songs lmao rip sorry @ mirae stans in the chat

seconded, as a former nct stannie and jeno biased there is no way in hell this guy is hetero LMAO. frankly i'm not up to date with new receipts but to me he comes off as one of those homoerotically-charged gym bros, kinda like skz changbin if you will? back in the day he used to be really shy whenever someone initiated affection with him, but he didn't put up any fight to avoid it lol it was very cute also unpopular opinion alert but i do think mark could have a small side that likes guys. i mean it's pretty clear that he likes girls (those fancalls...), but i think he would make out with a guy if he was drunk in unrelated txt news: soobin's twink flowerboy hunter agenda lives on... and there's fans out there who think soobin is a lady killer. like how do you even Begin to think that

i only showed her pictures but she wanted to look through a Lot of them to come to a conclusion. she even said that rose is the type of girl to dedicate songs to guys and i was so shocked because??? that's absolutely accurate. she also said that rose's style (as in clothes/hairstyle) would be sus if she was raised in south korea but because she's a foreigner it makes sense that she styles herself differently. idk! personally i would have never thought of that so it's an interesting perspective. if i had tor rank bp in order of how much they ping for me it'd be: jisoo > rose > lisa = jennie, the last two seem pretty straight to me. funny thing about the sakura deduction is that a day later i was scrolling on twitter and tapped on one of her photos and she said 'she's gay right?' and i was like i honestly think sakura is a lesbian, i would strike out the possibility of bi. she just... loves kissing girls, and she has supported the lgbt+ community through interviews and posts since her jpop days. i seriously doubt her heterosexuality, at the very least. those team names will forever haunt me i find billlie to be such a homoerotically charged group in general, but i think that's due to sua doing the MOST lmao. before watching their content, i did have some suspicions about her, but OMFG watching her in action was like watching a step-by-step guide on how to flirt with girls. her style and mannerisms hit so close to home, i think in a few years she'll be dominating the 'lesbians' favourite idols' lists. her brother is already a gay icon and there's something so poetic about her becoming one as well her picking sheon also confused me, but after she pointed it out i guess i can see her going through a coming of age arc where she realises she's a lil gay. she also dismissed haram as the straightest one which i don't agree with at all LMAO

as something more on the non-serious side, i asked my girlfriend (who hates kpop) to do some gaydar deductions on kpop girls, since her gaydar tends to be eerily accurate. she doesn't follow these idols but both her and i mostly share similar opinions! blackpink rose: painfully straight jennie: has some gay undertones lisa: would experiment jisoo: a total lesbian. super fuckin gay billlie moon sua: super gay tsuki: gay sheon/suyeon: gay undertones the rest are mostly straight lol other aespa are all straight yves is straight sakura is queer

i get these vibes from jake too ngl. he’s honestly as straight as they come but he doesn’t shy away from skinship with sunoo and i feel like he wouldn’t hesitate to beat up a homophobe LMAO
